E65 And E65 Service Indication

The service indicators can be displayed in three different locations inside the vehicle:

1. The Service Need Display (SBA)  , located in the Instrument Cluster under the Speedometer, is the evolution of the SIA4 Service Interval Display. When the ignition (KL15 Terminal) is on, the SBA appears briefly. The first line specifies the mileage range before the next service is due. The second line, displayed by a clock symbol, specifies the time range before the next service is due. If service is overdue, a minus sign ("-") will appear with the overdue mileage or time.

   For example:  The next mileage-dependent service item is due in 350 miles and the next time-dependent service item is due in 14 months.

2. The Check Control Display  located in the Instrument Cluster under the Tachometer.

   For example:  If either the front or rear brake linings are worn, the following is displayed:

   • "Service, see Vehicle menu" is displayed in the Check Control Display. For more detailed information, the user can access the CBS Menu in the Control Display.
   • The general brake warning lamp and the variable control lamp illuminate in the Instrument Cluster.
   • The variable control lamp shows the symbol of a car on a lifting platform in the bottom center of the Instrument Cluster.
